If the city's ratio of open space to built space is too high, then: - more driving is necessary - you have to live on top of each other

Parks are a welcome asset in cities, to be sure--but they're *part* of a city, not an escape from it.
-
When you really want to get away from the city and out into nature, you want to *leave the city* itself. Here, again, compact cities help...
-
...because they make it much easier for unbroken, unspoiled wilderness to begin where the city ends.
-
this is plausible intuitively, but London's green belt is used very little, whereas internal parks + spaces are used a lot
-
I don't disagree; this just shows that people don't want to *leave the city* as often as the hype would have us believe
-
cities are life. All we need is trains to get between them :D

Ugh that toxic density-killing "green"space" in the first picture. I much prefer it built close, with parks/squares.

Only Vienna appears to have an organic flow. From these pictures anyway.
